The Socializer or Matchmaker

[uial]

They wouldn’t be redundant.

Here is a reply from Sammyg from the Sapien team in another thread:

@Morphic

Read through this thread and it appears that The Matchmaker is quite a contentious tag because its aims and results are piggybacking off existing characteristics that the user is expected (?) to have before the audio, which is unlike a lot of the other audios. (Well, there are some others I can imagine are in a similar category, but Matchmaker stands out since it has to do with attraction).

I myself have had the Matchmaker for a few months and admittedly I’m not too impressed so far. However, I also have the Social Mastery field (got it as “The Socializer” from Teespring) and I was wondering if @SammyG or @Dreamweaver could comment as to the effectiveness of such a combination? If it helps, I am also using the Best Path In Life tag.

@SammyG

The combination is great actually. I’m a little confused by what you mean of piggybacking existing characteristics? I’ll guess you mean confidence (correct me if I’m wrong).

The field works on you whether or not you have confidence or not. Matchmaker doesn’t change the way you are, it changes the way you’re perceived. A lot of the other fields like the ones related to health or spirituality don’t require much action on your part. They work on you subconsciously and over time you notice results whether or not you actively take part in improving yourself.

Matchmaker is a bit different because the results we expect are to end up in relationships, sleep with more people, easier social interactions and things of that nature. But those things require action on our part. They require us to make a move, to talk, to charm… to try. Unfortunately, many of the people who get matchmaker aren’t confident and already have trouble talking to people they’re attracted to or talking in general. So taking action isn’t so simple. And I get it. I honestly get it. I’ve been there before and it’s a helpless feeling. But it’s definitely something can be overcome.
